Odaily reported that U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that as negotiations continue, a potential agreement with Iran could still be signed as early as Monday.
However, according to Iran's Tasnim News Agency, citing a source with knowledge of the matter, the two sides have not yet reached a final memorandum of understanding, and certain terms remain disputed. Given the repeated breaches of trust by the U.S. in past negotiations, Iran holds no optimistic expectations toward the U.S. side. Even if an agreement is reached, Iran will closely monitor the U.S. compliance with its commitments. Should the U.S. violate its promises, Iran reserves all its negotiating leverage to respond.
